I started with magoosh practice sets 2 months ago. I am a busy professional so wanted to get the most of my 2 hour night study sessions. Your interface is spectacular. I don't have to flip pages to see answer or need a stopwatch with me to assess my time. It was all taken care of.
In addition, the amount of practice sets provided is enormous. One can keep practicing and getting better at it and they won't run out.
Also, the answers and description from the instructor about why this should be an answer helped me understand the issues I had.
I think your course was an essential factor in getting a good score in the IELTS and I would recommend it to all.

As always, i like the way you guys teach. This started with GRE lessons, though i wasn't able to buy that course, it helpmed me get a very good idea about how Magoosh team works. The lessons are carefully planned and the practice questions are a bit tough which prepared me well for the actual exam. I had less than a month for preparation but I was able to get a 8. I come from the country side of India, a non English speaker to begin worth, this is indeed an achievement for me :) Thank You guys! May God bless you.

Hi,

I really loved the videos and pricing strategy( 1 week, 1 month and 6 months). Maggosh videos are very informative, very helpful and yet very affordable. These videos provide every piece of information that is required to ace the IELTS. I have a very little preparation time(20 Days infact) so I was unable to go through all the practice questions , but I assume those are also very good.Quality of the video materials are high. I am going to sit for IELTS(GT) in june 2018 again and will utilise all the practice questions this time. Grammer lessons are also very helpful.

I really love the Maggosh IELTS instructor Eliot Friesen-Meyers. He is a good guy and very skilled person. His presentation is very effective.Maggosh provides 90+ Video lessons which covers all the areas in fact.

I don't know wheather Maggosh provide feedback/scoring for writing and speaking section , If Maggosh provides feedback on Speaking and Writing then it would be a tremendous help for the students. Maggosh can also introduce full length mock tests. Practice test are very necessary. After learning all the strategies student can earn mastery only through practicing.

Overally I rate Maggosh 5 out of 5. If Maggosh introduce feedback/scoring webinar then that will provide more help to students.

For now this all about from myside. Please let me know if there is any other query. I am very satisfied with Maggosh indded

The practice tests and the explanation videos provided in Magoosh helped me a lot. The reading and listening sections had a variety of questions spanning across all difficulty levels which was helpful as I didn't get intimidated on the exam day. The writing and speaking sections with their explanation video helped me frame my points in a convincing manner.

At the first attempt of IELTS, i scored overall 7.0 in just 10 days of preparation through Magoosh only.
I strongly recommend magoosh for IELTS preparation. Magoosh Vocabulary flashcards are very helpful to learn new words. Practicing all questions will be very helpful.
Also I would highly recommend Magoosh to anyone who is preparing for TOEFL/GRE/GMAT.

Magoosh had previously helped me achieve a good score in my GRE hence I decided to go with it for my IELTS prep too. Magoosh has an extensive question bank which is more than enough for the practice that you would require. The interface helped me in understanding the test pattern as well.

How did Magoosh help you?
Well, I spent most of my time on lessons rather than doing actual practice. This was because I didn’t have much time to practice, and I needed strategies and tactics, so I relied on my english. The strategies in all skills are great, I really did well on my writing and reading because of it.

This worked out very well for me, 7.5 is more than I thought I’d get, I was guessing I’d get a score in the range of 6-6.5. I’m 0.5 short of the score I’ve put as a goal, but overall, I’m really happy.

How did Magoosh help you?
I tried Magoosh for GRE prep a couple of years back and the material is sufficient for anyone aiming to score 160+ in each section. Their level of difficulty is challenging enough for one to tackle advanced questions in the exams, which make the real difference between average and excellent scores. This is the reason why I opted for the IELTS prep package and I wasn't disappointed at all. The material allowed me to get enough practice for listening and reading sections. The reading section is a bit difficult as compared to the actual IELTS, which is the reason why one Magoosh will make the actual exam feel like a breeze.
